Guided wine tours from Queenstown

Photo: Kinross Tasting Experience

A guided wine tour does the driving, the booking and the tasting notes.

Small-group tours leave Queenstown daily for Gibbston and, on full days, Bannockburn; private tours go where you ask; and some pair the wine with a jet boat ride, a cruise, golf or a spa.

Each listing links to the operator's own page on queenstownnz.co.nz, where it is booked. For a day plan with lunch stops, see Planning your Queenstown wine day, and for every cellar door, Queenstown wineries.
